Hi All,
I had posted in May about the beautiful Batiks I bought at the Denver Quilt festival..
a couple of you had asked to see the jacket when it was finished; here's a photo, I lined it with black muslin;just something I had laying around, but was too thin to use on a quilt, to give it warmth, I used flannel, so it has a nice weight, it's not too stiff and it's warm. Good bye ugly work sweater!!!!! YEA!

Oh, so beautiful! What a lovely replacement. You will be the best dressed in the office!

Wow!! It's gorgeous with all those lucious batiks!! I'm sure someone at work will be eyeing your new jacket so keep it under lock & key,lol!!

Very nice :thumbup: :thumbup:

Gotta love those batiks! Great mix of patterns and colors. Thanks for sharing.

I love your Jacket. Was it a pattern or did you cover a sweat shirt like one of the Tutorials we have just had . Must say it looks as though its a pattern its beautiful.

Beautiful jacket!!

That is beautiful. I love the fabrics. Great job. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks Butterfly spain- It's a 'Simplicity pattern' that I altered a little, I had a pattern from the late 90's that I thought I wanted to use,( all these years..) called 'take 12 jacket' after I pulled it out & started looking at it, I didn't like the cut. It went together pretty quickly after I chose what fabric was going where. I have to tell you my ugly office sweater put up quite a fight when I tried to take it off my chair this morning! LOL

So it didn´t take kindly to its demotion. Not surprised with that beauty in its place. Bet you got some lovely comments as well!

Ooooooooooo That jacket is Gorgeous!!! :D:D:D
